Don't forget the ring, amulet, athame, and pet. That'd add four more open slots

Maybe the house we currently have equipped shouldn't count towards the backpack items count too...I don't see how a whole house can fit in there anyway

Reason: Smilie is meshed up D:<

I have been crafting mannequins for a few months now, as I gather enough fossils or diamonds. You may craft an unlimited number of them. However, there is a limit of 7 male and 7 female per area (inside / outside) of each house. Dorm rooms only have one area and may only hold 14. (Without purchasing any additional housing elixirs, this provides for ((3*2)+1) * (7+7) = 98 mannequins per character. This allows for storage of 294 Hats, Robes, & boots per character.) So, while collecting the reagents (1470 fossils!!!) to achieve this storage space will take me a long time, it is doable.

My main obstacle is that we still have no way to efficiently store athames, amulets, rings, seeds or pets. And, I am sure there are other types of items which other players would like to collect and hold onto.

I don't think it's the bank, frankly. I'm on a fairly new computer that far exceeds the minimum requirements and I was getting really horrible lag last night on a noobie character whose hoard of reagents is limited to those obtained in WC. Another thing they need to do to meet the demand is spring for more servers. I am so sick of jumping around perfect realms and finding them looking like busy and lagging horribly. $100,000,000 a year in revenue and only a few hundred employees -- please, they can afford it.

It's early 2000s old, so not really that old. Kingsisle does try to make Wizard101 accessible on old computers too, though. Not everyone can necessarily afford an updated computer that easily.

It was just a thought, I used to play on a 2006 Sony Vaio and suffered with lag, it was very slow in certain areas (commons and busy realms). I purchased a new Packard Bell last year with intel core I5 processor and I can run 3 game windows with no issue, have central and youtube up. I'm not sure we can definitely blame lag on in games items, different processors will obviously have some influence on how the game plays for us.

Re: Remove the Arbritrary Bank System

I for one can't stand the bank limits and agree with what many of you have said. They could even sell crowns storage items - a silo for your yard to hold all your seeds, a barn to hold all your pets and mounts, a closet/wardrobe to hold your gear, a kitchen cupboard to hold your reagents, a reffrigerator to hold pet snacks ( gee this is fun!) etc.
